[jira] [Commented] (LOG4NET-118) RollingFileAppender: RollingStyle=Size with StaticLogFileName=false does not work

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-118?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13267072#comment-13267072 ] 

Daniel commented on LOG4NET-118:
--------------------------------

This is definitely not a Minor issue! I just lost 1GB of logs because of it.
As Brian mentioned, this overwrites the existing log file instead of rolling and creating a new one.

Does anyone know if this is somehow fixed in 1.2.11 ?
